Mini Wander Bermondsey Street to Tower Bridge Road

[Wapping]

If only to show that there’s something to see in only about half a mile.

The old warehouses and mixed architecture, the glass blowing shop, Tanner Street Park, the Time and Talents Settlement building and the Albert McKenzie VC memorial:

Is that Tower Bridge in the last photo..

Went too London once,,Chuffing hated it...
From a countryside upbringing it was not for me..

 

[g00ner]

Your last picture, you were outside The Maltings where Mrs g00ner and I stay over the odd weekend. There’s a good view from the other side of the underpass



If you’re Wandering again do call by for a brew

 

[Wapping]

Is that Tower Bridge in the last photo..

Yes.

I'm not sure if it's the arch crumbles is talking about, an easy mistake to make it you've only ever been there once and hated the place.
